Mu zowala Wotsatsa losindikizidwa mu New York Times, Quincy Institute's Trita Parsi adalongosola momwe dziko la China, mothandizidwa ndi Iraq, lidakwanitsa kukhala mkhalapakati ndi kuthetsa mkangano womwe udazika mizu pakati pa Iran ndi Saudi Arabia, pomwe United States idalephera kutero atagwirizana ndi ufumu wa Saudi motsutsana. Iran kwa zaka zambiri.

Mutu wankhani ya Parsi, "US Siwopanga Mtendere Wofunika Kwambiri," akutanthauza kwa Mlembi wakale wa boma Madeleine Albright adagwiritsa ntchito mawu akuti "dziko lofunikira" pofotokoza gawo la US m'dziko la Cold War. Chodabwitsa pakugwiritsa ntchito kwa Parsi mawu a Albright ndikuti nthawi zambiri amawagwiritsa ntchito kunena za kupanga nkhondo ku US, osati kukhazikitsa mtendere.

Mu 1998, Albright adayendera Middle East kenako United States kuti athandizire kuwopseza kwa Purezidenti Clinton kuphulitsa Iraq. Atalephera kupeza chithandizo ku Middle East, iye anali Atauzidwa poyankha mafunso ovuta komanso ovuta pamwambo wa kanema wawayilesi ku Ohio State University, ndipo adawonekera pa Today Show m'mawa wotsatira kuti ayankhe zotsutsidwa ndi anthu m'malo olamulirika.

Albright ankadzinenera, “..ngati tiyenera kugwiritsa ntchito mphamvu, ndichifukwa choti ndife Amereka; ndife zofunikira fuko. Ife timayima motalika ndipo tikuwona motalikirapo kuposa mayiko ena mtsogolo, ndipo tikuwona pano kuopsa kwa tonsefe. Ndikudziwa kuti amuna ndi akazi aku America ovala yunifolomu amakhala okonzeka nthawi zonse kuti apereke ufulu, demokalase komanso moyo waku America. ”

Kukonzekera kwa Albright kutenga nsembe za asitikali aku America wapatsidwa anali atamulowetsa kale m'mavuto pomwe adafunsa General Colin Powell kuti, "Kodi kukhala ndi gulu lankhondo labwino kwambiri lomwe mukunena nthawi zonse ngati sitingathe kuligwiritsa ntchito ndi chiyani?" Powell analemba m’zolemba zake, “Ndinkaganiza kuti ndikakhala ndi aneurysm.”

Koma Powell mwiniwakeyo pambuyo pake adakakamira ku neocons, kapena "zopenga” monga adawayimbira mwachinsinsi, ndikuwerenga mabodza omwe adapanga kuti ayese kulungamitsa kuwukira kosaloledwa kwa Iraq ku UN Security Council mu February 2003.

Kwa zaka 25 zapitazi, maulamuliro a magulu onse awiriwa akhala akugonja ku "amisala" paliponse. Albright ndi ma neocons 'odziwika bwino kwambiri, omwe tsopano akuyenda pazandale za US, amatsogolera United States ku mikangano padziko lonse lapansi, mosakayikira, njira ya Manichean yomwe imatanthawuza mbali yomwe imathandizira ngati mbali ya zabwino ndi mbali inayo. zoipa, kutsekereza mwayi uliwonse woti United States pambuyo pake idzakhala mkhalapakati wopanda tsankho kapena wodalirika.

Masiku ano, izi ndi zoona pankhondo ku Yemen, komwe US ​​idasankha kulowa nawo mgwirizano wotsogozedwa ndi Saudi womwe udachita zolakwa zankhondo, m'malo mokhala osalowerera ndale ndikusunga kukhulupirika kwake ngati mkhalapakati. Zimagwiranso ntchito, makamaka, ku cheke chopanda kanthu cha US cha nkhanza zosatha za Israeli motsutsana ndi ma Palestine, zomwe zikupangitsa kuti kuyesetsa kwake kulephera.

Kwa China, komabe, ndi mfundo zake zosalowerera ndale zomwe zapangitsa kuti ikhale mkhalapakati wa mgwirizano wamtendere pakati pa Iran ndi Saudi Arabia, zomwe zimagwiranso ntchito pamtendere wopambana wa African Union. zokambirana ku Ethiopia, ndi kulonjeza kwa Turkey chisamaliro pakati pa Russia ndi Ukraine, zomwe zikadatha kupha anthu ku Ukraine m'miyezi iwiri yoyambirira koma kutsimikiza kwa America ndi Britain kupitiliza kukakamiza ndikufooketsa Russia.

Koma kusalowerera ndale kwakhala konyansa kwa opanga mfundo aku US. Chiwopsezo cha George W. Bush, "Muli nafe kapena mukutsutsana nafe," chakhala lingaliro lokhazikika, ngati silinanenedwe, lokhazikika la mfundo zakunja za m'zaka za zana la 21 la US.

Yankho la anthu aku America ku kusagwirizana pakati pa malingaliro athu olakwika okhudza dziko lapansi ndi dziko lenileni lomwe iwo akupitiriza kulimbana nalo kwakhala kutembenukira mkati ndi kuvomereza chikhalidwe chaumwini. Izi zitha kuchokera ku New Age kusagwirizana kwauzimu kupita ku chauvinistic America First. Mulimonse momwe zingakhalire kwa aliyense wa ife, zimatilola kudzikakamiza tokha kuti kulira kwa bomba, ngakhale makamaka. American athu, si vuto lathu.

Zofalitsa zamakampani aku US zatsimikizira ndikuwonjezera umbuli wathu kwambiri kuchepetsa kuwulutsa nkhani zakunja ndikusintha nkhani zapa TV kukhala chipinda chotengera phindu chopangidwa ndi akatswiri azama studio omwe akuwoneka kuti akudziwa zochepa za dziko kuposa tonsefe.

Atsogoleri ambiri andale aku US tsopano akuwuka chiphuphu mwalamulo dongosolo kuchokera kudera kupita kudera kupita ku ndale zadziko, ndikufika ku Washington osadziwa chilichonse chokhudza mfundo zakunja. Izi zimawasiya kukhala pachiwopsezo monga anthu oti akumane ndi ma neocon cliches ngati khumi kapena khumi ndi awiri omwe ali ndi zifukwa zomveka bwino za Albright zophulitsa Iraq: ufulu, demokalase, moyo waku America, kuyimirira, kuwopsa kwa tonsefe, ndife America, wofunikira. dziko, nsembe, amuna ndi akazi aku America ovala yunifolomu, ndipo "tiyenera kugwiritsa ntchito mphamvu."

Poyang'anizana ndi khoma lolimba lotere la dziko, ma Republican ndi ma Democrats asiya mfundo zakunja mwamphamvu m'manja odziwa bwino koma owopsa a neocons, omwe abweretsa chipwirikiti ndi ziwawa padziko lonse kwa zaka 25.

Onse koma mamembala a Congress omwe akupita patsogolo kwambiri kapena okonda ufulu wawo amapita kukagwirizana ndi mfundo zomwe zimasemphana ndi dziko lenileni kotero kuti ali pachiwopsezo chowononga, kaya ndi nkhondo zomwe zikuchulukirachulukira kapena kusadzipha chifukwa cha zovuta zanyengo ndi zina zenizeni padziko lapansi. mavuto omwe tiyenera kugwirizana ndi mayiko ena kuti tithetse ngati tikufuna kukhala ndi moyo.

Ndizosadabwitsa kuti anthu aku America akuganiza kuti mavuto adziko lapansi sangatheke komanso kuti mtendere sungapezeke, chifukwa dziko lathu lagwiritsa ntchito molakwika nthawi yake yolamulira padziko lonse lapansi kuti atilimbikitse kuti ndi choncho. Koma ndondomekozi ndi zosankha, ndipo pali njira zina, monga China ndi mayiko ena akuwonetsera kwambiri. Purezidenti Lula da Silva waku Brazil akufuna kupanga "mtendere club” ya mayiko odzetsa mtendere kuti akhale mkhalapakati wa nkhondo ya ku Ukraine, ndipo zimenezi zimapereka chiyembekezo chatsopano cha mtendere.

Pa kampeni yake yachisankho komanso chaka chake choyamba paudindo, Purezidenti Biden mobwerezabwereza analonjezedwa kuti ayambitse nyengo yatsopano ya zokambirana zaku America, patatha zaka zambiri zankhondo ndikulemba ndalama zankhondo. Zach Vertin, tsopano ndi mlangizi wamkulu wa kazembe wa UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield, analemba mu 2020 kuti zoyesayesa za a Biden "zomanganso dipatimenti ya Boma yomwe idawonongeka" ziphatikizepo kukhazikitsa "gawo lothandizira mkhalapakati ... lokhala ndi akatswiri omwe udindo wawo ndikuwonetsetsa kuti akazembe athu ali ndi zida zomwe angafunikire kuti achite bwino."

Kuyankha pang'ono kwa Biden kuyimba foniyi kuchokera kwa Vertin ndi ena pamapeto pake anaulura mu Marichi 2022, atachotsa ntchito zaukazembe waku Russia komanso Russia idalanda Ukraine. Dipatimenti Yachigawo Yatsopano Yothandizira Zokambirana ili ndi antchito atatu ang'onoang'ono omwe ali mu Bureau of Conflict and Stabilization Operations. Uku ndiye kuchuluka kwa kudzipereka kwa chizindikiro cha Biden pakupanga mtendere, pomwe khomo la barani likugwedezeka ndi mphepo ndi zinayi. okwera pamahatchi za apocalypse - Nkhondo, Njala, Kugonjetsa ndi Imfa - zikuyenda padziko lonse lapansi.

Monga momwe Zach Vertin adalembera, "Nthawi zambiri zimaganiziridwa kuti kuyanjanitsa ndi kukambirana ndi luso lomwe limapezeka mosavuta kwa aliyense amene akuchita ndale kapena zokambirana, makamaka akazembe akale komanso akuluakulu aboma. Koma sizili choncho: Kuyimira pakati pa akatswiri ndi ntchito yapadera, yomwe nthawi zambiri imakhala yaukadaulo payokha. ”

Kuwonongeka kwakukulu kwa nkhondo kulinso kwapadera komanso luso, ndipo United States tsopano ikuyika ndalama pafupi ndi a madola trilioni pa chaka mmenemo. Kusankhidwa kwa anthu atatu ogwira ntchito ku dipatimenti ya boma kuti ayese kukhazikitsa mtendere m'dziko lomwe likuopsezedwa komanso kuopsezedwa ndi zida zankhondo za thililiyoni za dziko lawo zimangotsimikizira kuti mtendere si chinthu chofunika kwambiri ku boma la US.

By tisiyanitse, European Union idakhazikitsa Gulu lake Lothandizira Pakati pa 2009 ndipo tsopano ili ndi mamembala 20 omwe akugwira ntchito ndi matimu ena ochokera kumayiko a EU. Dipatimenti ya UN ya Ndale ndi Zomangamanga Mtendere ili ndi antchito a 4,500, kufalikira padziko lonse lapansi.

Tsoka la zokambirana zaku America masiku ano ndikuti ndi zokambirana zankhondo, osati zamtendere. Zofunika kwambiri za Dipatimenti Yaboma sikupanga mtendere, ngakhale kupambana nkhondo, zomwe United States yalephera kuchita kuyambira 1945, kupatula kugonjetsanso madera ang'onoang'ono a neocolonial ku Grenada, Panama ndi Kuwait. Zomwe zili zofunika kwambiri ndikuvutitsa mayiko ena kuti alowe nawo m'magulu ankhondo otsogozedwa ndi US ndikugula zida zaku US, kuti asalankhule. amafuna mtendere pamisonkhano yapadziko lonse lapansi, kukakamiza anthu kuti azitsatira malamulo osaloledwa ndi akupha zilango zokakamiza, ndi kusokoneza maiko ena kudzipereka anthu awo ku US proxy war.

Zotsatira zake ndikupitiriza kufalitsa chiwawa ndi chipwirikiti padziko lonse lapansi. Ngati tikufuna kuletsa olamulira athu kuti atiyendere kunkhondo ya nyukiliya, tsoka lanyengo ndi kutha kwa anthu ambiri, titha kuchotsa zotchinga zathu ndikuyamba kuumirira pa mfundo zomwe zikuwonetsa zomwe timakonda komanso zomwe timakonda, m'malo motengera zofuna za otenthetsa ndi kutentha. amalonda a imfa amene apindula ndi nkhondo.
